Banned Poster

Written by Anders Nelson

Saturday, 06 September 2008

For those of you who have not been keeping score (which, let’s be honest, is probably very of you), Kevin Smith has once again gotten himself in trouble with the MPAA with regards to his latest film Zac and Miri Make A Porno. After having to appeal their decision to give the film a dreaded NC-17, Smith has now attracted their ire based solely on the poster, depicted at left. The poster has been banned from display in theaters, although, clearly, it can be readily found on the internet.

I don’t really know what to think about this one. Obviously, you never like to see anything banned in this country, but this is just a little bit gross. I can’t get behind banning this everywhere (believe it or not, there are still some theaters in this country not designed for family consumption), but I wouldn’t hold it against a multiplex owner if he or she decided it wasn’t best for the intended audience.

What do you think?
